Benchmarking: The First Step in Setting Network Performance Standards

Author(s): Mark Tauschek

Benchmarking network performance and establishing standards for the organization is essential. The enterprise network is increasingly relied upon to carry mission-critical and time-sensitive application traffic and it must perform reliably and predictably.

This research note will help network managers define network performance standards by addressing:

  • Network performance benchmarking.
  • Optimizing network performance.
  • Establishing performance standards and internal Service Level Agreements (SLAs).

Take the time to benchmark network performance, establish performance standards, and communicate them to the organization.
